A Muslim group Tuesday condemned the murder of a U.S. contractor who was beheaded by a group claiming links to al Qaeda. "We condemn this cold-blooded murder and repudiate all those who commit such acts of mindless violence in the name of religion. We call on people of all faiths and cultures to work together for peace and reconciliation, not war and destruction," the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said in a statement. A video posted on an Islamic militant web site showed the murder of a Philadelphia man identified as Nick Berg, whose body was found on a highway overpass in Baghdad on Saturday.

"April 29, 2004 update: Joe Kaufman breaks the news at FrontPageMag.com today of what may be a fifth CAIR associate arrested for terrorism-related activities (the others are Randall Royer, Bassem Khafegi, Siraj Wahhaj, and Ghassan Elashi). His name is familiar and his arrest was back in 2002; the news is his connection to CAIR. He is Rabih Haddad, executive director of the Global Relief Foundation until its closing by the feds and Haddad's own arrest and eventual deportation."

They've been reading my posts about getting a new PR person.

We tried to apologize to the Kuwaitis, but they wouldn't accept our apologies....they were mad that we were only humiliating the prisoners, not executing them.

"I hated that these terrorists are making me feel the way I do towards all moslems today."

Why? I hate them all and I'm not about to apologize for it. All I want to know is why the whole damned dung heap is still standing? Where is Gen. LeMay when we need him? Or Patton? Or Blackjack Pershing?

Be still my heart. I don't believe it.

Americans are better and more humane than the animals inhabiting that oversized litter box called the Middle East.

Our undoing.

"The Iraqi prisoners' mistreatment show ran out of gas today. Most Americans will have little sympathy for the Iraqi thugs once they watch the news tonight. "

I was thinking our enemies still have a bit to learn about Americans. They shouldn't have beheaded the guy and sent out the video for another few weeks to get the most bang for the buck with the prisoner humiliation photos. Now they've just thrown a bucket of cold water on the whole thing. Poor Demorats just can't get a break!

Do you know what the "truth" is to an Arab? A Muslim?

Truth is whatever they can convience you is the truth. It has nothing to do with what the "west" calls truth. This means they really never "lie" to anyone. Especially non-believers.

When you hand over your humanity, your soul and your concience to Islam you have nothing left.

It may be because some FREEPERS emailed and called them this afternoon. So, yes, it was probably a first! ROFLOL!

Perhaps they have studied Admiral Isoruku Yamamoto and remembered his famous quote after the bombing of Pearl Harbor...

"I'm afraid we have awakened a sleeping giant and filled it with terrible resolve."

Guess CAIR is starting to guess the mood of the average american. We're fixing to be out for blood.

As an American, I see the time has come where I should not probably own a gun, but must own a gun (or 2 or 3). Our country has been infiltrated and every Patriot must be ready to fight.

I hope and and I'm praying so hard to God, that this message and the manipulation it took to get it into the media will lead to his capture and along with his henchmen.

I just looked at their website. There is nothing there, except a bunch of anti-US trash. Nothing about allah's filthy murdering children.

I think I hate them the most for that same reason. I think I could have done much worse to those Iraqi prisoners if I thought they knew something that could save lives. I hate that about myself now, but the fact remains that I could do such things with a hatred that runs so deep.

They shouldn't have beheaded the guy and sent out the video for another few weeks to get the most bang for the buck with the prisoner humiliation photos.

I just spoke to a friend of mine who has been outraged out the mistreatment of the Iraqi security prisoners [euphemism for terrorist suspects who placed roadside bombs and launched RPGs].

My friend said that if he had a chance, he might stick a glow stick up the butts of these thugs. Just for starters.

[BushisTheMan]

I'm not suspicious.

I think they want to condemn it first becuase there is going to be such a backlash against Muslims once the video of this murder gets out!

They are protecting their own butts! Public sentiment is turning against them and they know it...after all they are experts are manipulating the masses of stupid people here in the U.S.

I heard it on the radio and now the articles are online. CAIR STILL DOES NOT HAVE THIS ON THEIR WEBSITE.
